I didn’t say it was unfair, I understand the policy, but with the club restricting the number of season cards being released it reduces the chances of others who have been waiting a number of years (and paying for the privilege of queuing although I know that’s not officially a thing anymore) of getting one.The policy / flexi gold was designed for a season card holder to be able to a junior. I don’t see it being unfair as City have done what they said they would do. Hopefully adult Blues who are desperate for a season card get the chance if one soon, too.
I just hope the people really keen on getting season cards who will get behind the lads for the vast majority of home games are successful. Sterling the obvious, the opening if the expanded Nirth Stsnd is the best opportunity for this in years.I didn’t say it was unfair, I understand the policy, but with the club restricting the number of season cards being released it reduces the chances of others who have been waiting a number of years (and paying for the privilege of queuing although I know that’s not officially a thing anymore) of getting one.
Is it under 15s they aren’t allowed in the ground on their own? City had little choice but to address the season card demographic time bomb by offering season cards to youngsters who they know would be accompanied used by a season card holding adult.It's unfair that a family with access to a season ticket get to expand the number they have with no criteria for doing so while members with 1000's of point aren't given access to get themselves on the ladder.
It is unfair, there may be reasons that you agree with but its unfair on those with points for whom the door is currently closed because they aren't deemed to be in the age bracket of customers the club wants to attractIs it under 15s they aren’t allowed in the ground on their own?

Here’s an example that summarises my thoughts. Ian on somewhere between 22k and 23k points. Before the 18–25 allocation I got to more of the big away games. Not all. I agreed with the 18-25 allocation as it was in the best interests of the Club. It wasn’t unfair.
It’s also a safeguarding issue. It’s not about fairness.It is unfair, there may be reasons that you agree with but its unfair on those with points for whom the door is currently closed because they aren't deemed to be in the age bracket of customers the club wants to attract
Is it fuck a safeguarding issue, who was unsafe prior to the release of these tickets?It’s also a safeguarding issue. It’s not about fairness.
It’s a positive development that new season cards are being offered for next season. There’s hope there will be new adult season cards when the expanded North Stand opens.

City’s rules on youngsters being accompanied.Thats part of the Club’s safeguarding policies whether we agree with it or not:Is it fuck a safeguarding issue, who was unsafe prior to the release of these tickets?
Sober / hungover from Saturday lol.
I do think a season card, by definition, indicates somebody intends to go to most or all of the games. City and City Matters seem preoccupied with peole who want to go to a minority of home games. I’ve no issue with the Blues making the economic desision to get a season cards (given the cost of match day tickets) but what’s the big deal in expecting fans to transfer on / list on the The Exchange, tickets for games they cannot make.
